What is wrong
Marmon-Herrington is recalling certain drive axles, model numbers MT14, MT17, MT22, R17 and R22, manufactured July 28, 2014, to July 22, 2015. The affected axles are equipped with hex nuts on the flange yoke that may not have been properly tightened.
What can happen
If the hex nuts are not tightened to specification, the driveshaft may disconnect from the drive axle, resulting in a loss of propulsion and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
If improper torque is observed, the hex nuts should be tightened to the appropriate torque. Owners may contact Marmon-Herrington customer service at 1-502-253-0277.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
